Crate cargomon 

Cargomon: A Rust implementation inspired by nodemon

This crate provides functionality to watch for file changes in a Rust project, automatically rebuild the project, and run the resulting executable.

Features

• File watching: Monitors specified directories for changes
• Automatic rebuilding: Triggers a rebuild when changes are detected
• Executable running: Runs the built executable after a successful build
• Debouncing: Prevents multiple rebuilds for rapid successive file changes
• Colored output: Provides visually distinct console messages for better readability

Usage

To use Cargomon in your project, add it as a dependency in your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
cargomon = "0.1.0"

Then, in your main.rs file:

fn main() {
    cargomon::run();
}

Command-line Options

Cargomon supports the following command-line options:

• --watch-path or -w: Specifies the directory to watch for changes (default: “.”)
• --debounce-secs or -d: Sets the debounce time in seconds (default: 2)

Example usage:

cargo run -- --watch-path ./src --debounce-secs 5

Functions

Starts the Cargomon file watcher and build/run loop.
